RF (Resorcinol-Formaldehyde) aerogels and carbon aerogels were prepared through the sol-gel method following the routes of polymerization, gelation, supercritical drying and pyrolysis processes. The influence of fabrication parameters on the textural structure of the samples, e.g., specific surface area, pore size, and pore size distribution, etc., were systematically investigated. With a decrease in the R/F molar ratio, or an increase in the catalyst content within a limited range, the porosity of the nanostructure materials increases. The optimal temperature of pyrolysis for RF aerogel was investigated by TGA (Thermogravimetric Analysis).

Phloroglucinol–resorcinol–formaldehyde (PRF) carbon aerogels were synthesized by sol–gel reaction. The results of condition of shrinkage showed a degree of crosslinking more obvious with the increasing of the carbonization temperature. CA900 displays the highest adsorption amount and the biggest loops, as well as an increase in pore size and volume in comparison to the others samples. The SEM images of carbon aerogels under different carbonization temperature possess closer network structure and excellent connectivity, the holes between the network are abundant. The XRD patterns show that the high carbonization temperature can enhance the graphitization degree of carbon aerogels.

ABSTRACTWe present the synthesis of resorcinol-formaldehyde aerogels and carbon aerogels of different nanoporosities, emphasizing on the recent developments in fabrication pathways of lower cost. Recent results showed a simple way to the production of highly nanoporous carbon xerogels. While using an approach combined colloidal silica nanocasting and carbon dioxide supercritical drying, hydrophilicity-controlled carbon aerogels with high mesoporosity were synthesized. Then, we demonstrate the functions of these aerogels for template synthesis of hierarchically nanostructured zeolites having micropores and mesopores.

Phloroglucinol-resorcinol-formaldehyde organic aerogels (PRF) were prepared using phloroglucinol, resorcinol and formaldehyde in a sol-gel process, solvent replacement and drying at room temperature. The phloroglucinol-resorcinol-formaldehyde carbon aerogels (CPRF) were prepared by charring the PRF at high temperature under the aegis of helium flow. The microstructure of CPRF was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, specific surface area analyzer and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the CPRF had continuous network structure and high specific surface area.

The electrochemical performances of resorcinol–formaldehyde-based carbon aerogels can be significantly enhanced by nitric acid activation.FT-IR spectra and SEM images reveal the constitution and morphology of samples .The electrochemical performances of materials were tested by cyclic voltammetry,galvanostatic charge/discharge test ,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic test. The results show that activation does not influence the molecular structure of carbon aerogels,which maintains their nano-porous structure. Activation increases the specific capacitance by 50% and improves the conductivity of carbon aerogels,resulting in fenfect cycling stability. So nitric acid activated carbon aerogels is an ideal electrode material for supercapacitors.
